Meet the Maasai

The Osiligi Troupe of Maasai warriors are performing at St Mary and St Nicolas Church, Spalding, tonight (Thursday) from 7.30pm.
Tickets are available from the South Holland Centre costing £10 for adults and £5 for children.
This is an opportunity to experience and enjoy the diverse culture of the Maasai.Crafts and wares will be available for purchase.
Since 2004, the group has been performing an annual tour of the UK and will return later this year. They perform authentic and exciting Maasai tribal song and dance plus the world-famous Maasai jumping.
Since 2010, the group has worked with a small UK charity – Osiligi Charity Projects – to support infrastructural improvements in their local community. 100 per cent of any money given to the charity goes to support these community projects.
The charity is separate from the tour but has earned both directly and indirectly from it.
“The tour is for our families, the charity for our community,” said Tajeu Minisa, leader, of The Osiligi Maasai Warriors.
